> [!NOTE]
> If you are working with a ticks value that you want to convert to some other time interval, such as minutes or seconds, you should use the <xref:System.TimeSpan.TicksPerDay?displayProperty=nameWithType>, <xref:System.TimeSpan.TicksPerHour?displayProperty=nameWithType>, <xref:System.TimeSpan.TicksPerMinute?displayProperty=nameWithType>, <xref:System.TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond?displayProperty=nameWithType>, or <xref:System.TimeSpan.TicksPerMillisecond?displayProperty=nameWithType> constant to perform the conversion. For example, to add the number of seconds represented by a specified number of ticks to the <xref:System.DateTime.Second%2A> component of a <xref:System.DateTime> value, you can use the expression `dateValue.Second + nTicks/Timespan.TicksPerSecond`.

> [!NOTE]
> An alternative to the <xref:System.DateTime> structure for working with date and time values in particular time zones is the <xref:System.DateTimeOffset> structure. The <xref:System.DateTimeOffset> structure stores date and time information in a private <xref:System.DateTime> field and the number of minutes by which that date and time differs from UTC in a private <xref:System.Int16> field. This makes it possible for a <xref:System.DateTimeOffset> value to reflect the time in a particular time zone, whereas a <xref:System.DateTime> value can unambiguously reflect only UTC and the local time zone's time. For a discussion about when to use the <xref:System.DateTime> structure or the <xref:System.DateTimeOffset> structure when working with date and time values, see [Choosing Between DateTime, DateTimeOffset, TimeSpan, and TimeZoneInfo](~/docs/standard/datetime/choosing-between-datetime.md).

By using the `DateWithTimeZone` structure, you can then persist date and time along with time zone information. The following example uses the <xref:System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter> class to serialize an array of `DateWithTimeZone` objects.
